WIT is the single word that can approximate' ly summarize Millie's personality, for to be witty, as we all know, one must also be clever, and indeed this girl has a generous supply of both. Her thorough democracy, together with her quickness of mind has insured her popularity among both the faculty and the students. If Millie be as successful later as she has been in her school activities, we already envy the position which we feel certain she will someday hold.

RITA LUCILLE WALSH sr. IGNATIUS LoYoLA RECEPTION COMMITTBB-'29, '30, '31 One step at a time, but always forward. EVER studious and industrious with a com' plete absence of egotism, Rita has progressed steadily in the ways of knowledge. Her quiet, unassuming mien has won for her the esteem of her entire class. Surely her zealous efforts to complete whatever she attempts, will gain for her the future success, which she so justly merits, and which we so heartily predict for her. Since the finest gold needs burnishing, Rita's character will have to be purified by trials before it fulfills all the requirements of lofty ideals. ELIZABETH MARY WATSON CATHEDRAL A quiet tongue shows a wise head. ELIZABETH personihes the ambitious stu' dent. Never yet have we seen her waste a moment devoted to study. Little wonder then, that she has attained the title Historian of the Class. However, we must not allow our reader to get the impression of Elizabeth's being only a studious girl. On the contrary, she is always sociable and willing to oblige. May you triumph and persevere in the path of success. Ninetyfnine
